Romantic Medical Immortal-Chapter 217: The Scam Scheme!

The door to the office clicked shut, locking out the sounds from downstairs.

Seeing Lin Wan with a mysterious air, Chu Wanhai was a bit impatient: "What’s going on? Isn’t the tea in your hand? We have guests downstairs!"

"Guests? Ha!"

The smile vanished from Lin Wan’s face, replaced by a gloomy expression, and she said, "Chu Wanhai, your eyes are practically glued to Yang Rou! What, has she bewitched your soul in my presence?"

Chu Wanhai’s eyes flickered, and he defended himself guiltily: "Nothing like that! I’m just being a gracious host, taking an extra look... Besides, she’s not as pretty as you..."

As he spoke, he tried to wrap his arm around Lin Wan’s waist!

But Lin Wan pushed Chu Wanhai away: "Cut that out... I’m asking you, did you hear what Yang Rou said just now?"

"What did she say?" Chu Wanhai didn’t react immediately.

"She said she’s married! Her husband is on a business trip!" Lin Wan’s eyes sparkled with greed, "And Yang Rou is lucky, she recently married a very rich husband! I’ve checked, he runs a cosmetics company in our Peach Blossom County, especially wealthy, get it?"

"Especially wealthy?"

Chu Wanhai’s eyes also lit up, and he said: "Really? Her brother looks pretty ordinary though."

"Hmph, can’t her brother be low-key? Besides, she just got married, how could the husband’s money quickly flow to the brother-in-law?"

Lin Wan sneered, leaned in closer to Chu Wanhai, and said in a low voice: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! The heavens have brought her to our shop!"

"Opportunity? What kind of opportunity?" Chu Wanhai vaguely guessed what Lin Wan wanted to do, his heart racing.

"What kind of opportunity do you think?"

Lin Wan frowned and said: "She married a rich husband, is home alone, surely she holds the family finances! These wealthy wives have plenty of spare cash and love to buy antiques to showcase their taste!"

She eyed Chu Wanhai, saying word by word: "Our shop has no shortage of ’good stuff with stories,’ right?"

Chu Wanhai understood, swallowing nervously, his gaze turned eager, but he hesitated: "Can this work? Yang Rou seems quite smart, and her brother’s eyes were odd, always inspecting the store’s items..."

"What are you afraid of!"

Lin Wan interrupted Chu Wanhai, her tone decisive: "No matter how clever Yang Rou is, what does she know about antiques? In college, she couldn’t even tell blue-and-white porcelain from glazed red! As for her brother, just a young lad, nothing to worry about, and last time at our opening, other classmates bought lots, she’s here to support us and buy things."

"Wife, you’re right!"

Chu Wanhai showed an excited and sly smile, grabbing Lin Wan, saying with a raised corner of his mouth: "Your mind is sharp, okay, watch me perform soon, won’t stop until we get tens of thousands!"

...

Meanwhile!

Yang Cheng was sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed, seemingly resting, but using his keen hearing to secretly monitor the office upstairs.

Ha... those two can’t be plotting anything good.

If that’s the case, let’s see who’s really tricking who!

With this thought, he slowly opened his eyes and turned to Yang Rou: "Sis, your classmates just opened, shouldn’t we buy a few things to show some support?"

"Hmm, at the opening, my classmates all bought something, now that I’m here, I should buy something too, but the money I have is limited, a few thousand worth should be enough!"

Yang Rou had been thinking about how much to spend.

"Sis, I think the stuff here looks good, we could buy a bit more, with good luck, we might even make a big profit."

Yang Cheng heard the sound of the door upstairs opening, his eyes shifted lightly, and he spoke immediately.

"I must say, Yang has a really good eye!"

Just then, Chu Wanhai arrived at the stairway, hearing Yang Cheng’s words, he immediately joined in, speaking while he descended, "Everything in my shop is quality stuff, carefully selected by me!"

Quality stuff??

Ha, try fooling the ghosts, it’s all a pile of trash.

Nonetheless, Yang Cheng didn’t show it, instead looking at Chu Wanhai sitting down in front of the sofa, smiling lightly: "I checked when I came in, Brother Hai’s shop has good items, my sister must buy a couple more today!"

"Hahaha, thank you for the support, Yang!"

Chu Wanhai secretly rejoiced, immediately turning to Lin Wan, saying: "Wife, quickly bring the tea over for the two of them."

"Okay!"

Lin Wan nodded gently, sitting down on the sofa, casting a meaningful glance at Chu Wanhai while brewing tea, as if saying: I told you, this guy is just a young lad, does he know antiques?

Seeing the look, Chu Wanhai instantly understood, shooting a disdainful glance at Yang Cheng.

Initially, he saw Yang Cheng quickly surveying the items upon entering, thinking maybe he had some skills, but it turned out he’s ignorant!

My shop has good stuff?

All were sourced from out-of-town markets, hardly any real goods!

"Here, have some tea!"

Lin Wan handed two cups of tea to Yang Rou and Yang Cheng, smiling at Yang Cheng, "Handsome, you seem to like our items, after tea, we’ll help you choose, just like you said, with a bit of luck, you might make a big profit."

"Haha, sure, no problem, we’ll definitely pick several then."

Yang Cheng lifted the teacup, a barely noticeable smile on his lips.

Hearing their exchange, Yang Rou couldn’t help but worry, she discreetly signaled with her eyes to Yang Cheng, wanting to just show some support, not intending to buy too many antiques.

First, she didn’t have much money, secondly, she didn’t understand antiques.

Yang Cheng returned a reassuring glance to Yang Rou.

Upon seeing this look, Yang Rou’s initial anxiety suddenly dissipated a lot, she knew Yang Cheng wasn’t one to be easily swindled.

"Alright, we’ve had our tea, let’s pick some items?"

Yang Cheng placed the teacup down, focusing on the two.

"Sure, I’ll take you!"

Hearing this, Chu Wanhai suddenly got spirited, he stood up and made an inviting gesture, "Please follow me!"

Just like that, led by Chu Wanhai, the group started browsing the shop.

"This item looks good, how much?"

Suddenly, Yang Cheng stopped and pointed to a ’brush’ emanating Spiritual Energy, asking.
